PHYSICAL EDUCATION AND MATHEMATICS!

In class, we learned the difference between seconds, minutes, and hours.

We know that there are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour!

Think back! What did you do last week in P.E.?

Yes! You ran a mile!

HOME ACTIVITY

STEP ONE:

Recall your mile time.

For example: 9 minutes and 48 seconds.

STEP TWO:

Convert your mile time to seconds.

I want to know how many seconds it took you to complete your mile!

(Remember: For every 1 minute, there are 60 seconds!)

Language support:

Once you have converted your time to seconds, write your time in standard number form and word form.

(For example: 567 seconds-five hundred and sixty seven seconds)
